Johan killed my Jacobian baby

We had research meeting today. We talked about small issues regarding my manuscript.

Johan had suggested to skip the last paragraph of my discussion, and to make a short separate paper out of it instead. It was about the jacobian strength. I did not want to skip it, and we argued for a while. I said that it was like a child for me, and I did not want to skip it. Since he managed to convince Age and Margriet, I had to give in at the end.

Johan apologized, however, for killing my jacobian baby. Margriet comforted me saying that it will hopefully come back as a separate child (paper) :).
